The whole purpose in coming to Ghana, Africa was under the
SEED Program Internship.
SEED stands for Social Enterprise Education Development, and we teach
basic business to mostly illiterate adults in the villages for 10 weeks, help
them form a business plan, to be analyzed if they should get a micro loan to
expand or start their business. Due to
the fact that most students do not read , write, or speak English, we have
translators for the classes.
We funded the loans at the end of March after a long process
of determining who should qualify for the loans. It was so great to see these people receive something
they would never have otherwise gotten to hopefully improve their life! What a great experience to be a part of!
We have been keeping a blog on behalf of this work that can
